This paper presents tables analogous to T ‐tables for use in the 2 × 2 multinomial trial, where the continuity corrected Z ‐statistic is used to make exact unconditional inference. This is the first solution of a discrete exact unconditional inference problem involving a multivariate nuisance parameter for which no ancillary statistic exists.
